Chemical Structure

4-(Difluoromethyl)-1,2,5-oxadiazole-3-carboxylic acid CAS 2452465-16-4 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 4-(Difluoromethyl)-1,2,5-oxadiazole-3-carboxylic acid (C4H2F2N2O3) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 164.07 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

CATO supplies 4-(Difluoromethyl)-1,2,5-oxadiazole-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 2452465-16-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H2F2N2O3, MW 164.07 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
